List of Top At Home Learning Pre-School STEM Toys

Top At Home Learning Pre-School STEM Toys!

Being a former middle and high school science teacher for 8 years before I became a mom, I’m a huge advocate for having science related toys for my kids to play with. My husband is also an engineer, so both of us are fans of science, technology, engineering, or math related toys that are educational and fun. We still have a pre-schooler at our house, so I’m always on the hunt for great STEM toys that are on her learning level. Here is a great list of toys made by Learning Resources that are top notch at home learning pre-school STEM toys!

I am also thrilled to announce that one lucky reader will have a chance to win one of my favorite Learning Resources Pre-School STEM Toys – Froggy Feeding Fun ($25 value – see below on how to enter the giveaway.)

1. Shining Stars Projector – It’s a galaxy of stars in the palm of your hand! Young astronomers can explore early space science by beaming images of space onto any surface for a close-up view of stars, planets, and more! Just place the discs into the slot for quick and easy viewing. Features an easy-carry handle, automatic shut-off to conserve battery life, and a stand for projector mode. Includes 3 discs, with 8 images on each (24 images total).

This Since we’ve heard so much about experiences watching this years solar eclipse, here is a great toy to keep the conversation going at home about our solar system!

2. Primary Science Hands-On Discovery Lab – Take the mess out of hands-on science investigations! Durable viewing box features built-in gloves to encourage even your most hesitant young scientists to take a closer look. Build a worm farm, make gooey slime or fill it with anything that deserves exploration. You also can cap the hand holes to promote hands-free observation. Cleans easily, latex-free gloves can be removed for rinsing. Wash box with soap and water.

This to me is every moms’ dream science toy! It contains the mess while the little ones can still explore! I think the parents would have just as much fun playing with this one as the kids do (at least I would!)

3. Primary Science™ Leap & Launch Rocket – Budding scientists get ready to blast off! Young learners will enjoy countless adventures in early space science while building gross motor skills with this perfect first rocket. Can you make the rocket land on the sun or moon target? Just stomp on the wide, “leap-on” launch pad featuring adjustable navigation, and see how far the rocket can go. Includes 2 soft foam rockets and Activity Guide filled with space facts.

This is a fun one that will keeps the kids active and competitive! Again, another great toy to keep the astronomy learning alive after this recent eclipse.

This activity set helps children discover and explore the five senses. It’s also great for the development of STEM skills.This set includes sensory tubes with lids, recordable answer buzzer, kaleidoscope, jumbo magnifier, divided plate with double-sided taste cards, tac-tiles™, and an activity guide.

I would love to have this set when she has a friend over to play. We’d have such a fun “science lesson” that is really just play time too!

I remember when I was a kid, I used to mix soaps and powders (or anything else I could find in the bathroom that my mom would let me play with) and I’d concoct all sorts of “cures for cancer.” This looks like a fun set that can also let your kids practice being breakthrough scientists!
